52042254 ÷ 144 
Our goal is to divide 52042254 by 144.

Going ahead to step 1:
144 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 52 / 144

Advancing to step 2:
52 divided by 144 is 0 with a remainder of 52.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 52, we get 52.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 520 / 144

Step 3:
144 goes into 520 3 times with a remainder of 88.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 432 from 520, we get 88.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 88, then carry on: 884 / 144

On to step 4:
If we divide 884 by 144, we get 6 and a remainder of 20.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36.0
Deduct 864 from 884 and we're left with 20.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 202 / 144

Advancing to step 5:
202 divided by 144 is 1 with a remainder of 58.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 361.0
Subtract 144 from 202 to get 58.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 58 and repeat the process: 582 / 144

Advancing to step 6:
The number 144 fits into 582 4 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3614.0
Subtract 576 from 582 to get 6.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 65 / 144

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 65 by 144, we get 0 and a remainder of 65.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36140.0
Subtract 0 from 65 to get 65.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 65, then repeat: 654 / 144

Step 8:
The number 144 fits into 654 4 times, leaving a remainder of 78.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 361404.0
If we take 576 away from 654, we end up with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
780 divided by 144 is 5 with a remainder of 60.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 361404.5
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 720 from 780.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 144 fits into 600 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 361404.54
If we take 576 away from 600, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 11:
144 can be fit into 240 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 96.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 361404.541
The remainder is 96 after subtracting 144 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
960 divided by 144 is 6 with a remainder of 96.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 361404.5416
Subtracting 864 from 960 leaves us with 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 960 by 144, we get 6 and a remainder of 96.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 361404.54166
Subtracting 864 from 960 leaves us with 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Our division results in 361404.54166 with a remaining 9.6e-05.
